Claiming and dealing with tax credits for someone else
Overview
You can get permission to deal with someone else’s tax credits. The type of permission you need depends on what you want to do.
You can:
- contact HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) about someone else’s claim - as an authorised intermediary
- take responsibility for someone else’s tax credit claim when they cannot manage their own affairs - as an appointee
- claim tax credits for both your child and their baby
